Loyola Maroon Vol. XLIII Loyola University, New Orleans, La., Friday October 7, 1966 No. 2 $ For Institute . . . The Rev. Louis J. Twomey, S.J., director of the Institute of Human Relations, receives a check for $6,500 from Mr. Lindsey Williams, general chairman of the testimonial committee, at a banquet held Saturday night. Human Relations Head Honored By President By BRENDA ACOSTA Father Twomey The Rev. Louis J. Twomey, S.J., director of the Institute of Human Relations, was honored at a testimonial banquet Saturday night for his dedication to human dignity, particularly in the areas of labor-management relations, racial problems, and Latin American affairs. Congratulatory tel egrams were sent by President Johnson, Vice-President Humphrey, AFL-CIO leader George Meany, and Secretary of Labor Willard Wirtz. Those present to pay tribute to Fr. Twomey included U.S. Representative Hale Boggs, Victor Bussie, president of the La. AFL-CIO, as well as other civic, religious, and business leaders and friends. He was presented a check, representing proceeds from the banquet, for $6,500 to forward his work in the Institute. "We have a city that is making progress, that is living in peace; it didn't just happen. It happened because people like Father Twomey were able to bring patience and reconciliation into the area of human conflict . . . Congressman Boggs said. President Johnson's telegram stated: "America's progress and the progress of all mankind are charted by the farsighted efforts of citizens like you". Victor Bussie cited Loyola for its part in fostering and encouraging Fr. Twomey by "teaching young men and women the value of human relations.""Although this is a tremendous personal experience for me, I feel that this is an accolade of the work we have been doing, rather than personal adulation," asserted Fr. Twomey in his acceptance speech. He was surprised at the banquet by the appearance of his brother John Twomey of Tampa, Fla., and was presented a ticket to accompany him home for a short vacation. The telegram from Humphrey congratulated Fr. Twomey for his work as a member of the National Manpower Advisory Committee of the U. S. Dept. of Labor. City Council President John Petre presented him with a plaque on behalf of New Orleans for "meritorious service in human and industrial relations."Gerald E. Siefken, director of the Institute's "Project SEESAW", gave Fr. Twomey a scroll on behalf of his coworkers in appreciation of his leadership. A tree has been planted in his name in the John F. Kennedy Peace Forest in Israel by Bess and Sidney Goldman. "Father Twomey has made many contributions in the areas of social-economic problems, and race understanding," Lindsey Williams, general chairman of the testimonial committee said. He has been director of the Institute of Human Relations since its creation in 1947, when the labor-management center opened. The two other branches of the Institute are the Inter-American center, and "Project SEESAW". The banquet was held at Seafarer's International Union Hall. 'The Blacks' At the request of the New Loyola Theatre, the Dillard University Players will present two performances of Jean Genet's "The Blacks" at Marquette Auditorium next week. The performances will be given Monday and Tuesday at 8:30 P.M. Tickets will be made available at the door on opening night. Price of admission is $1. "The Blacks" will be presented later in the week at Tulane University. Bidding Opens January 2 For New Science Complex By ED CURDA "Modern but very functional" will be the requirements confronting prospective bidders when they receive the plans and specifications of the proposed $4.2 million Loyola science complex this January 2. Construction of the fivestory building that will house the departments of chemistry, physics, mathematics, and computer science will begin in March, 1967, with a tentative completion date of August, 1968. The building, to be located at Calhoun and Marquette Place, not only will alleviate the cramped quarters in the present science buildings, but will also completely double the amount of classroom space now available on the Loyola campus. Designed by J. Buchanan Blitch, architect, and Mary Mykolyk, design co-ordinator, the complex will boast a 500- seat amphitheater-type auditorium as well as incorporate the most modern science facilities. When not in use by the science departments, the auditorium will be available for a wide variety of events, such as music recitals, little theater production, lectures, and so forth. It will be equipped with front-and rear-screen projection facilities, and conduits will be built in to permit easy installation of closed-circuit TV. The interior design of the building is flexible and leaves room for expansion. The walls have no utilities in them, making it possible to remove walls and combine classrooms without unduly disrupting operations within the buildings. The many features of the complex will include: 9 separation of the teaching area from the office and research areas; 0 a chemistry department library; 0 a monorail system for moving materials on the ground floor of the chemistry section to reduce floor wear, noise and storage space for carts; 0 space for a computer center large enough to receive practically any large computer;• a physics optics lab including light-tight cubicles for experiments requiring darkness;9 nineteen student carrels (private study alcoves) for math majors. Although a federal grant of $1 million will assist in the construction of the science complex, the major portion of the funds must come from private sources through the university's "Campaign for Excellence."Foundations, corporations, alumni, and friends will be asked to join the university in the provision of these muchneeded science facilities. Council Fee Explained Quite a few students were a bit puzzled when asked during registration to pay a two dollar fee to the Student Council. However, on May 10, 1960, the Student Council passed an amendment to its constitution empowering it to levy such a tax on those attending the university. The council placed a limit of two dollars on this fee and required that each succeeding council levy the fee at its own discretion. The purpose of the Student Council fee, as stated by the amendment, is "to provide services for the students of the university." The money once collected is then placed in the general treasury of the council.Nevertheless, during the days of registration, members of the council who collected the fee were questioned as to the purpose and reasons for the tax along with the inquiry as to what will happen to those who do not pay. From the university administration the Student Council this year received a budget of $1605 which is mainly to be used for such things as freshman orientation, court elections, homecoming and the like. This necessarily puts the council in somewhat of a financial bind, for it makes it virtually impossible to carry on a full load of events for the student body. In order to alleviate the situation, the Student Council decided on this method of taxation. Although this is the first year the council has been authorized by its constitution for such a tax, last year's coun- Finishing Touch . . .
